FutureB-
The Packers robbed the room for Gordon II. Final grade: B. The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: Ollie Gordon II, pick 250, roughly 83 picks past where he belonged.
They are betting Bailey proves the room right and everyone else wrong. That quarterback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.
Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.
Pick Analysis
Pick23
Rnd1
Shavon Revel Jr.
In Round 1, Pick 23 they get a ballhawk on the outside at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick62
Rnd2
Elic Ayomanor
A big swing on Elic Ayomanor at the Round 2 slot, well ahead of any board in the building. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick87
Rnd3
David Bailey
Value said wait; David Bailey in the 87th overall pick says they were not listening. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick94
Rnd3
Azareye'h Thomas
They took Azareye'h Thomas at par in pick 94, which is nothing to complain about. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick122
Rnd4
Savion Williams
They let Savion Williams come to them and pounced at No. 122. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick158
Rnd5
Chris Paul Jr.
A linebacker of that caliber at pick No. 158 is the definition of value, full stop. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick196
Rnd6
Joshua Gray
Joshua Gray in the 196th pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick237
Rnd7
Jonah Monheim
Steal is underselling it; Jonah Monheim at slot 237 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. It fills a real need, too.
Pick250
Rnd7
Ollie Gordon II
They robbed the room for Ollie Gordon II here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
